The premier trade association representing the top U.S. aerospace and defense industry manufacturers and suppliers.

Introduction

The Aerospace Industries Association of America (AIA) is the premier trade association representing the nation's leading aerospace and defense manufacturers and suppliers and is the authoritative voice on issues of civil and commercial space, commercial aviation, defense and security and national airspace systems.

For nearly 100 years, since the Association's founding in 1919 by many of aviation's early pioneers including Orville Wright, AIA has been the industry voice shaping the policies that matter most to our members.
